Following their guest appearance at the 1979 World Song Festival, the 1980 Japan tour was realized. A multi-camera pro shot of the tour has been decided to be released. This work includes "February 10, 1980: Nakano Sun Plaza performance". First, let's look back on Eric Carmen's only Japan tour by schedule. January 30: Hokkaido Welfare Pension Hall February 1: Kyoto Hall February 2: Festival Hall February 4: Aichi Prefectural Labor Hall February 5: Shibuya Public Hall February 6 + 7: Nakano Sun Plaza February 9: Kanagawa Prefectural Prefectural Hall February 10: Nakano Sun Plaza [This work] All 9 performances. The Nakano Sun Plaza performance in this work was the final additional performance. This show was professionally recorded and broadcast on commercial stations. "Inside Story" and "Tonight You're Mine" were also released on the official website, but this work is a precious 45-minute air check video from that time. Although the slightly sweet screen is difficult to call "official grade", the master freshness with almost no dubbing marks is outstanding. (It seems that Japanese broadcasting was still in the early stages of rock shooting) The camera work makes extensive use of Eric's facial expression, and even the wrinkles of his double eyelids are clearly visible. Such beautiful images depict the precious Carmen in Japan. Although the show is not complete with only nine songs edited according to the broadcast frame, the condensed hit songs are particularly rich. A well-balanced selection from the three albums "ERIC CARMEN", "BOATS AGAINST THE CURRENT" and "TONIGHT YOU'RE MINE", you can stare at hit singles such as "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again", "All By Myself" and "She Did It" in professional shots. In addition, the sense of the era that seeps out from the screen is also delicious. The simple stage set, camera work, purple glitter costumes, and yellow cheers between songs are all from that era, but "She Did It" makes you feel even more "1980". Fans throw paper tape at Eric who is singing, and it hits him perfectly. You can also see Eric's surprised expression as he flinches for a moment. And when the members are introduced, the audience gives them bouquets and presents, but it's not just one or two people, but me too! Me too! They rush in one after another. And in the last song, "That's Rock'n Roll" (unfortunately it ends halfway through), Eric avoids the flying paper tape and brushes it away with his hand...there is an air of a tranquil era. In addition to the Japanese performances, this work also includes two bonus pro shots. This is also a Japanese broadcast with subtitles. One is three songs from the 1988 "DIRTY DANCING" era, "Make Me Lose Control", "Almost Paradise", and "Hungry Eyes", and the other is "All By Myself" from the 1990 "Alice and Other Records 15th Anniversary Concert". The three songs from 1988 are particularly great. The quality is of a completely official level, but the costumes and stage are much more gorgeous than the Japanese performance, and the lively appearance is like BON JOVI. And behind them, the dancers in aerobics are flirting, which is a real 80s scent. You can witness the shining figure that became a hit maker in the movies "Footloose" and "Dirty Dancing" in a super beautiful professional shot. The only Japanese tour and the late 80s when he became a composer. This is a piece that you can immerse yourself in for about an hour with the best professional shots.
